Really good! I tripled the recipe and sliced half of my mushrooms, chopping the rest because I like a little more texture. Minus some of the liquid, this would be a really good sub for Cream of Soup in a can - but tastier, of course. Thanks for the recipe!

Excellent! Hubs and I eat a good deal of our meals in fine restaurants all over the country and he, a man of few words, declared this "restaurant quality." I added some finely chopped onion and garlic, a tad more mushrooms, and used Penzey's shallot salt for the salt called for, otherwise sticking to the recipe as written. The submitter is right by describing this as having "a wonderful fresh mushroom flavor." This was a quick but very satisfying meal along with grilled cheese sandwiches on homemade bread. Really enjoyed this!

Delicious! We made it for guests who had seconds and thirds! Serve with garlic bread. We skipped the cream and added extra mushrooms (portabella and button) and extra chives. Goes well as a first course with pork chops with apple chutney--another fav. recipe on this site.

I use Vegetable Bouillon (either granules or cubes are OK; no additional salt is necessary that way) and fresh Portabella mushrooms when I make this soup, and I thicken it with Corn Starch instead of flour. If you don't have (or can't get) chives, scallion (spring onion) TOPS are a great substitute. YUMMY year 'round!

Excellent soup! Easy to make. Tastes just like Campbell's cream of mushroom. I wouln't change the recipe a bit.

I love this recipe! I've made it twice now, the first time I thought it was a little too creamy (although to be fair, my roommate and coworkers thought it was fine as-is) so I cut the amount of half and half I used (just added it to taste), added a little extra chicken broth and extra mushrooms. so good!!
